"What's her name?" Draco repeated, more harsh this time, Draco took a step forward and crossed his arms to put emphasis on the fact that he wanted an answer.

"I said I don't know." Jack snapped. Draco raised a brow and looked behind him to make sure the silencing charm was still on the room, and to be sure no one had entered. He hadn't locked the door, just charmed it to silence.

"Alright, fine, we'll come back to that later then. What happened to her?" Draco asked, taking a few more steps towards Jack. He swallowed and backed towards the wall more. He seemed just as scared as Draco used to be himself when he first became a death eater.

"I don't know." Jack responded. He put up a face of anger and seemed to be trying to threaten Draco silently, but Draco simply rolled his eyes and took another step forward, only two or three steps from being in breathing range.

Draco seemed to be good at intimidating as Jack shrank down a little bit, but only a bit. He still was trying to seem intimidating himself without using his wand.

"You know, I can tell when someone's lying, because iv done so much lying myself I know the burden it places on your shoulders, and you, are lying. What's her name? What happened to her?" Draco asked, taking one last step forward, Draco was a little taller then him, but not by much. Jack was almost eye level with him.

"Makayla Scamander. Voldemort did it to her. He attacked the train and took many of the students." Jack finally gave in. Draco backed away from him, only a bit.

"Your wand." Draco said, he extended his hand to take the wand. Jack hesitantly took his wand out of his cloak and gave it to Draco. Draco nodded once and walked to the door.

"Thanks, we'll see what'll happen to you later." Draco said before leaving. He charmed the room with Jack's wand to be locked to Jack, and Jack alone.

"What'd you find out about her?" Solomon asked as Draco tossed Jack's wand to a nearby chair and knelt by the couch to see the unconscious girl.

"Her name's Makayla Scamander. And Voldemort did this to her, the guy's name is Jack Riley. How is she?" Draco asked, he chose not to mention that the train was attacked on it's way to kings cross station. He'd look into that right after he found out about her condition.

"She's fine, or she will be at least. It's mostly cuts on the outside, looks like she was tortured a little bit until they realized she either had nothing to give, or she gave it to them." Fred answered, he took Jack's wand to check if it still had a good core or not. He began healing her wounds after he found that the wand did indeed work.

"She does seem fine. I would stay until she wakes up, but I need to look at something. Anyone willing to go back to Kings Cross?" Draco asked, specifically looking at Fred and George, the only ones able to apparate.

"I'm staying." Fred stated flatly, still healing Makayla. George sighed but nodded and went over to grab Draco's arm and go back to the train station. Draco took his arm out of his reach and held a finger to tell him to wait. He walked over to Solomon's room and grabbed Jack's arm, dragging him out of the room without explaining to him what was going on. He shoved him toward George.

"Move, and you wont be able to move again." Draco threatened Jack as he jogged upstairs to tell Hermione where he was going.

She still lay quietly in bed next to Justin, not a care in the world. He kissed her forehead and smiled at her.

"Be right back, going out for a while." Draco whispered. She smiled and nodded, keeping her eyes closed as she did.

"Tell Harry I said hi, make sure he's ok." Hermione mumbled. Draco froze in his tracks on the way to the door. How'd she know he was going to Kings Cross?

Draco panicked a little when the thought struck him that she could be a Legilimens.

"I will." He said quietly before leaving. He took Jacks arm and George took it as well. Solomon grabbed on and they were at Kings Cross station.
